Blog closed.

Dear friends. I laid off my translator (me) because she was very bad. I am very sorry I will not be able to continue with the bog, but if you are interesting you can follow us in our Spanish blog because our pictures talk by themselves. Thank you for your time. Love María.

Seed toy bags.

With a little skill you can make these bags full of beans, salt ... They are interesting for playing games in kitchenettes, shops and as simple sensory elements for children. You can also use them with blind eyes to guess its contents.

Intellectual lunch, chattering oranges and tangerines.

The season of oranges is finishing, but what a surprise! See what a strange hybrid has fallen into my hands. It is the orange of wisdom, which is fantastic when children are learning to write names, numbers, shapes ... or even for short messages of love.

As you know tangerines are orange´s cousins and there is also a tangerine wisdom tree whose fruits are great for lunch at school.

The nephews of tangerines are kumquats. We love them at home…I would like to be sincere. A kumquat tree would be the best surprise gift I could have from my husband for our recent wedding anniversary.

I show you a picture to give you an idea of how nice it can be. Besides, it is easy to find because they sell in most of the "gardens" near my house.

Week 13. Writing a letter with an original gift for... a princess on her birthday.

On 29th April our beautiful princess Sophia will be four years old.

So Dani and David have sent her a letter with a small gift for her and her beautiful sister Leonor, trying to encourage the day.

We wish you a happy princess birthday.

The kids have sent to them two double dice that are used to learn numbers, play to add, subtract, multiply ... the two numbers.

How many letters of someone who loves you, except from your bank, have you received last month?

Letters are romantic and nostalgic extinct beings. Before they disappear from the face of the earth swallowed up by social networks, chats or emails, I invite you as our activity of the week to write, draw, paste, sculpt or sing a funny and original letter to an important person, whether: a loving grandfather, a princess on her birthday, a handsome singer, a smiling teacher, a cartoon character, an unforgettable friend ...

WEEK 10. Holiday gift kit filled with magical objects.

Mmm! It is beginning to smell like spring by here. Surely although you do not go on holiday, you will have any excursion on mind. I recommend that you do not bring forth hundreds of toys. You will meet in an environment that is not the usual with lots to explore and analyze that will not be at your disposal when you return home.

I propose that you allow him to choose only one or two toys and apart, create a "surprise vacation kit” to delivery in the area.

If you stay, the kit could be done within a box and if you go you can choose a backpack.

Then I am writting what is in the Dani´s surprise kit and some other alternative idea.
